On this 
FA Cup 4th Round replay day in 
BLACKPOOL ARE OUT The last minutes were battled - there was no other word for it - with 21 men in Stoke’s half of the field and Farm watching it all from afar, watching his team go out of the Cup against a defence nearly impregnable. The final whistle ended one of the most remarkable rearguard actions I have ever seen played on the Blackpool ground.
As it blew every Stoke man leaped about in jubilation and half of them swarmed back to shake the hand of George Mountford, the man who had won the match.
